Hi everybody !
I'm totally new on this forum where i learn so much ! I've made 4 X1 and two MT-130 (http://hornplans.free.fr/mt130.html), and I'm looking for the best suitable kick bins to put between those cabs. HD15 or MTH-30 ? The MTH-30 looks easier to build and less expensive too.. How many of them ? (2 seems to me good) By the way, I mainly play Bass music : Dub, Dubstep, D'n'B, and some deep techno/house too. I plan to X over that way : - X1 : 30 to 70 hz - kick bin : 70 to about 150 hz What do you think ? Any phase and delay issues ? Thanks very much |

I'm looking for something quite compact like the MTH-30, and easy to build..
Does anyone know this cab ? http://hornplans.free.fr/mth30.html What do you think about USB ? The MKH-230 looks great too ! Thanks for advices ! |

IMO, it might not be good to mix two different style of subs,
go for either G subs or X1 but not both. I'm really looking for good kicks that reach 70 hz easily.. MTH-30 ? |

do hd 15's not hit the 70 hz easily? sorry dont know anyone who has built mth 30 or heard them.
why dont you just run the x1's up to 80 - 100 hz?
